This tourist attraction near Shrewsbury is packed with live demonstrations that reflect the real workings of a Victorian farm, as seen on BBC2's 'Victorian Farm'. Watch the blacksmith in his forge! Gasp at the huge Shire horses! Ideal for families, groups and school trips.

We've been to Acton Scott twice this summer! We had friends up to stay and thought we'd have a nice day out and Acton Scott had everything for the kids, especially with the good weather. Fantastic place.

An educational, entertaining day out near Shrewsbury. Highlights incl. a GPS treasure trail, simulated balloon ride and life size replica of a woolly mammoth! The centre focuses on interactivity and is perfect for the whole family or school trips.

A great day out for the whole family, well worth a visit in the holidays. My daughters loved it, making education fun! And it's not often you can say that about History and Geography.... The staff are very friendly and helpful and the cafe choices are good too.
